SuSE is distributing the unreleased "Hannibal Lecter" version of GNU
ld. It slices and dices the ELF objects, confusing our unexec
procedure.
Please send me the output of ld --version and I'll try to trap it in
configure for future versions of XEmacs.
To workaround, reconfigure with
./configure --pdump ...
OR
./configure --ldflags='-z nocombreloc' ...
If that doesn't work, please let us know, but the symptoms match
(SuSE, crash in make-frame, no pdump or nocombreloc in Installation).
